Hello Camilla~

First, start by converting the fractions into decimal. It will make it easier :)

2/5 = 0.4 mile

3/4 = 0.75 hours

What is the formula to find speed?

Well, Speed = distance traveled divide by the time taken.

Speed = 0.4/0.75

Speed = 0.53mph

1/3 miles per hour, because speed equals distance divided by time.
